Images in Service Information

Images

Image philosophy
A new image philosophy has been introduced in 2006 for instructions in mechanical working procedures. In previous instructions a detailed text was supplemented with images.
In the new instructions it is the opposite.
From 2006 the instructions focus on images and text is only used where it is not possible to show the entire working procedure in images.

Color symbols




1. Used for focused component, the component with which you will do something.
2. Used for retaining elements or components to be removed/installed. Can be screws, clips, connectors, etc.
3. Used as extra colors, which needed to show or differentiate additional components.
4. Used for standard tools and special tools.
5. Used as background color for vehicle components.
6. Used when the component is not fully removed from the vehicle but only hung to the side.

Order number




A figure in a circle denotes the order in which the different stages in the image are to be carried out.

Types of arrows

Identification arrows




Arrows that identify parts to be removed.
The numbered arrow denotes that they are two screws to be removed to release the brake caliper.




The numbered arrow denotes the number of retaining elements to be removed
All retaining elements embraced by a numbered arrow are of the same type and size.

Movement arrows




Movement arrows indicate pushing or pulling in the direction of the arrow.
In this instance the movement arrows are numbered to denote the order in which you should push or pull the component.




Rotation arrows denote that the component must be turned in the direction of the arrow.
The rotation arrow indicates that you should turn the component to release it.




Angled movement arrows denote that the component should first be moved in one direction, and then in another direction.
The angled arrow (2) shows that you should first push the cushion backward and then upward to release it.

Background components




Background components are often taken away in order to improve the clarity of an image.
Parts that are not relevant in order to put across the instructions in the image have been omitted.

Views




Views are sometimes chosen that show components from another angle and which do not correspond with how you see the components when working on the car to make the images clearer. For example, this is done to show concealed screws.
When working on the bevel gear it is possible that you see it from this angle when installed in the car.
